Up/Down

Up:
- Finally going running after talking about doing it for the past year.
- Going to the library and finding The Elves of Cintra available.
- Finishing my part of our presentation on bioterrorism for PMG (prokaryotic molecular genetics).
- Getting Bones, Grey's Anatomy and Southland all in one day.
- Going to my last organic lab class and realizing how close this sememster is to ending.
- My brother being home early.

Down:
- Getting a cramp about a block into running... Because I haven't worked out in about a month and not stretching because I wanted to go before it got even hotter.
- Realizing I might have to appeal my scholarship because my GPA might drop below a 3.5
- STILL not having resolved issues with my boyfriend, and having to wait until Wednesday on his only day off.
- Being home, alone, for about 75% of the day

Oh the nostalgia...

I was mindlessly sifting through the many videos that make up youtube, and some how came upon a non-disney princesses video collage thing, and it reminded me of all these great old animated movies that I'd totally forgotten about. Like
A TROLL IN CENTRAL PARK!

I used to LOVE this movie, and I haven't seen it in ages. Oh the beauty of youtube, I'm gonna try to watch it before it gets flagged for copyright infringement. If you're interested, here's the rest:
Click for movie!
But what about all the REST of the great non-disney animate movies?
Like...
Happily Ever After

Yeah, remember this one? The alternative, non-disney Snow White movie? Even though it's after...but still. I always thought of it as the other Snow White Movie.
Here's the rest of this one

Then there's Thumbelina!

Wee! Free movies!
And who could forget:
FernGully

Clickety click

And All Dogs Go to Heaven


And last but not least, Anastasia, whose embedding was disabled :( but you can find the movie here.

Does anybody else remember these movies? Did I leave out one of your favorite animated non-disney movie? Another one I always really like too, was the Secret of NIMH. Damn, that was a hardcore movie for little kids.

I'm thinking of maybe buying all of these on DVD if they have them, they'd be a great addition to my collection, and so maybe one day, my kids will watch them too.

That's not what you think it's for...

You know when you go to Wal-Mart to buy an updated supply of um...ahem...feminine products? And you know people are staring at your basket, and they see it, and they just know? Well, the other day I went to Target (so much less crowded than Wal-Mart) and bought: Monistat Chafing Relief Powder Gel. Yeah... I would have bought it online and saved myself the embarrasment but I'm really trying to save some money and decided I could avoid the extra cost of drugstore.com plus shipping and just pay about $6 for it. The thing is, yeah it's from Monistat, and we all know what their products are for, but I wasn't buying it for that. I've heard it's a good face primer and decided I wanted to try it out. The worst part was checking out because you know the cashier noticed it, and probably thinks it's gonna be used for its intended purpose, but I think if I had just randomly blurted out "It's actually for my face," I would've seemed a lot weirder than I alredy did. And yes, we all have to make monthly trips to the drugstore for our womanly parts, but all women go through that. We all have to buy them at some point, so it's not as embarrassing because I know everyone has had to buy tampons and pad at some point. But not everyone had needed to buy chafing relief gel. And technically, I didn't really buy it for the reason you're supposed to. Oh jeez, this has just been one big awkward experience. I probably shouldn't advertise it either, but oh well =D
